I love the Saturn and it is a great system to collect for.  Anyone know why Mega Man 8 is worth so much on it compared to the PSX version?

I have played almost all the REs (couldn't finish 5 and haven't played 6 or 7) and I loved RE3.  I really like the pressure that Nemesis keeps on you.  Always hunting you down.  Sure it wasn't as long as part 2 but I still enjoyed it.  I love the RE Remake on GameCube. This graphics were best in class when it came out and the crimson head zombies were cool.

You nailed it. That was the before time. I remember that time well. It was what, five years till the buying power came back in 2013. 

Yes, something like that.  I remember having a hard time getting $20 for a nice cart copy of Sunset Riders for SNES.  I also bought The Crow issues 1-4 (all original and first print in good shape) for $120.  Saw a Dracula X Rondo of Blood with spine card for $75 on eBay.  Didn't have a good job back then but now I do.   Luckily my job is secure and I can easily work from home.  Hoarding cash now waiting for some deals to drop soon.

Any initial price bump because of people wanting systems and games to play while sheltering in place will evaporate when the recession fully hits.  I remember the crazy deals I found on eBay after the 2008 recession.  Prices were so low.  It impacted all collectibles too.  Comics, cards, video games.  You name it.

This goal is incongruent with collecting.

Yes, I have learned this the hard way.  lol  I have gotten rid of 90% of my debt over the past year or so.  Almost there!  Check my sales thread if you want to help me get there.

To become 100% debt free.

New items added.

I have been through this before.  Basically they send you a fake western union or some other money check and want you to cash it.  I got one for like triple the asking price of the item I was selling.  They said something like my assistant made a mistake and sent the wrong amount.  They then want you to cash it and keep the money for the item, and even some extra, and send the rest back to them with the item.  My hunch is that sometimes they can get cashed and other times the check cashier employee raises the alarm and then you are stuck with the issue of trying to pass a fraudulent cashier check.

dude. nice neighborhood you stay in.

Thanks.  We love it here.  I have two kids.  The Upper west Side is very kid friendly.  Although now we are going a little stir crazy with the shelter in place order.  Just going out once a day to Central Park for an hour with the kids and that's it.

I have to admit that is really cool.

I have survived week one of the madness. This was one of the most challenging weeks of my life, right up there with when my youngest was born.

What do you  do?

I hope they go under sooner than later.

I hope they go under personally.

Wow, very cool.

Anyone like Zoom?  They could be used heavily for teleconferencing in this pandemic.

Thats what I figured. I retire in 21 yrs!

You should put more money into it.  Now is the time to buy.  Actually....  futures are pointing towards another bad day tomorrow.  Not sure will the bottom will be.  How much lower can it go really?

The sky is falling.  I hope the Dow can stay above 20k at this point.  This is bad.

How much will the market crash today?  I'm guessing 7% down.

NHL season suspended too.  March Madness games with no fans in attendance.  Forest Gump infected.

This is a weird time for sure.
